"Is it true that they are not going to allow even the Last Rites of the Catholic Church to be given her?"

Michael S. has ordered this. Said he didn't want anything near her mouth.

My question: Since I'm not Catholic and not familiar with the rituals of last rites, is there any way they could give her these last rites without using the host?

Usually it is an annointing on the forehead with chrism oil while the Priest prays over her.

How can you honestly state this with such certainty?

Roman Catholic Monsignor Thaddeus Malanowski and another Catholic priest gave Terri Schiavo last rites, putting a few drops of communion wine in her feeding tube hours before it was removed
